You are quite literally in the global 1%

That's true for a lot of people in "first world" countries. One is ahead of billions of poor people basically for existing.

You are saying that capitalists own the means of production, while "little capitalists" don't.

I don't think its useful to lump in high-income professional work with the low end of capital accumulation. The sums may overlap, but the actual class interests don't, at least not entirely. Good analysis should recognize the distinctions here.

You can have whatever definition you want. But for me, working class means just that - a person that has earned their bread through the work of their own hands, not through the exploitation of the labor of others, through rent-seeking, or from inheritance.

I'm sure you can cite plenty of theory, but frankly, I don't care. I prefer a definition of the term centered in lived experience. If you go off raw wealth, you just end up classifying entire nations as working class or bourgeois, at which point the term loses all meaning.

I think you’re thinking of the professional managerial class.
